Mario de Cremona

Mario de Cremona (died 1143) was a Papal States captain.

Biography
Cremona was born in Rome, capital of the Papal States, in the Centro District. He enlisted in the Papal Guards to quench his desire for fighting, and also joined the Knights Templar as an executioner. In 1140, he killed assassin Giovanni de Vesci when he tried to infiltrate Rome, and Cremona was made a master Templar.

Death
When Pope Innocent II was assassinated by the Assassin Order to let the Commune of Rome take power and defy Papal authority, Mario de Cremona was involved in a plot to take over the Vatican again with some Templar mercenaries. However, his plot was foiled when Assassins recruits infiltrated the palace and silently killed all of the guards with hidden blades, including Mario.
